Interconnection of the power system utilities and grids offers a formidable dispute in front of design engineers. With the interconnections, power system has emerged as a more intricate and nonlinear system. Recent years small signal stability problems have achieved much significance along with the conventional transient constancy problems. Transient stability of the power system can…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in 2017 6th International Conference on Industrial Technology and Management (ICITM) [53]. This research focuses on the mobilization of human resources in the Asian electrical industry and analyzes the impact of engineers’ international mobility on the innovation of enterprises in the host countries. I examine the…

For the design of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) related products, basic level of technical expertise and simple development tools were enough in the early 1980s. As time goes by, new generation products designed by engineers are always expected to be smaller, lighter and faster, due to the increasing global competition and the application of…

A company’s ability to find the most profitable technology is based on a precise forecast of achievement potential. Technology Management (TM) uses forecasting models to analyse future potentials, e.g. the Gartner Hype Cycle, Arthur D. Little’s technology lifecycle or McKinsey’s S-curve model. All these methods are useful for qualitative analysis in the planning of strategic…

Wavy FinFET is a hybrid device that integrates FinFET and Ultrathin Body FET technologies on SOI platform to provide high density and drivability without causing area penalty. The problem associated with this device is higher leakage and lower threshold voltage. This problem can be solved by structural modification of the device. This work analyses the…

This work depicts the preparation of Ni-C ultrafine composite from used engine oil. The used oil was emulsified with detergent loaded with Ni (OH)2. The loaded emulsion was sprayed on electric plasma generated between two C electrodes to a DC main 28 V and 70-80 A. The purged Ni-doped carbon fume was trapped on a…

One of the most important roles of the wireless sensor networks (WSN) is to avoid wiring costs, be self-sustainable and be able to function for several years. However, due to the slow progress in battery technology, power continues to be a limited resource in wireless sensor communication and electric energy storage remains to be an…

Feature extraction is playing a significant role in bio-signal processing. Feature identification and selection has two approaches. The standard method is engineering handcraft which is based on user experience and application area. While the other approach is feature learning that based on making the system identify and select the best features suit the application. The…

Conformal Prediction is a recently developed framework for reliable confident predictions. In this work we discuss its possible application to big data coming from different, possibly heterogeneous data sources. On example of anomaly detection problem, we study the question of saving validity of Conformal Prediction in this case. We show that the straight forward averaging…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented and published in IEEE International Multidisciplinary Conference on Engineering Technology (IMCET). This work presents a design and implementation of a moving human tracking system with obstacle avoidance. The system scans the environment by using Kinect, a 3D sensor, and tracks the center of mass of a…

The importance of Modelling Methods Engineering is equally rising with the importance of domain specific languages (DSL) and individual modelling approaches. In order to capture the relevant semantic primitives for a particular domain, it is necessary to involve both, (a) domain experts, who identify relevant concepts as well as (b) method engineers who compose a…

Pure Aluminium and its alloy are widely utilized in Engineering and Industrial applications due to certain significant properties such as softness, ductility, corrosion resistance, and high electrical conductivity which it possesses. Addition of an agro-waste based grain refiner to the melt can alter the characteristics positively or negatively. Therefore, the aim of this paper is…

This paper presents a Release Management model to support requirements management. Requirements development and management can be integrated with a release-planning approach to achieve lesser Requirements spillover problems which is an innovative way to capture, control and evolve the user requirements based on integer linear programming.

The implemented programs in the MapReduce processing model are focused in the analysis of large volume of data in a distributed and parallel architecture. This architecture is automatically managed by the framework, so the developer could be focused in the program functionality regardless of infrastructure failures or resource allocation. However, the infrastructure state can cause…

Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is a high effective learning algorithm for the single hidden layer feed forward neural networks. Compared with the existing neural network learning algorithm it solves the slow training speed and over-fitting problems. It has been used in different fields and applications such as biomedical engineering, computer vision, remote sensing, chemical process…

Over the years, pneumatic systems have recorded a remarkable performance in automated applications, based on their cost to efficiency ratio and ease of energy transmission.  Therefore, their drawback of not being totally controllable devices in terms of position accuracy, still represents a challenge task for engineers. In this paper, a traditional three term controller (PID)…
